ff the hamstring injury sustained on Sunday that will sideline him for six to eight weeks, the Barcelona striker said.
In his first public remarks since he was forced off early in Barca’s 4-1 La Liga win at Real Betis, Messi said his priority was to return as soon as possible so he could contribute to the Spanish champions’ quest for silverware.
“As many of you know, over the next few weeks I will be working full time on the recovery from this latest injury,” Messi said on his Facebook page.
It was his third thigh injury of the campaign and followed a similar muscle problem towards the end of last season. (Reuters)
